Major U.S. stock indexes slipped at midday Tuesday, retreating from fresh record highs set earlier in the week. The pullback came as investors digested corporate news and commodity milestones.

The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite, which both reached intraday records Monday, traded lower as several major names weighed on the benchmarks.

Ford Motor Co. (F) was among the day’s weakest performers, falling around 7% after reports surfaced that a fire at a key aluminum supplier could disrupt vehicle production for months.
